Non-judgmentalness: Can You Teach an Old Critic New Tricks?

In this episode of the Wise Mind DBT Podcast, we explore the mindfulness concept of judgment and non-judgmentalness—and ask the big question: is it even possible?

We dive into why our brains are naturally critical and judgmental, how these thoughts and beliefs developed to keep us safe, and the different types of judgments we make every day. Most importantly, we share skills to notice and start changing this pattern.

Yes, we’re not DBT purists, but we explore these skills in our own way, through the art of defusion, making mindfulness practical, accessible, and maybe even a little fun.
